I have part of my original molar implant exposed now. The dentist now has changed his mind that he cannot cover it with the crown and he has already been paid. First- Can the implant be covered by the crown? Second - do I have a right to a refund?

Answer: Implants and their restorations Whether a crown does or does not cover the entire implant depends on many variables that are out of the control of the dentist. And there is nothing diagnostically wrong if the crown does not cover the the treads or lower portions of the implants. Therefore asking for refund is not reasonable . Unless you are having discomfort or other diagnostic issues, I would simply accept that replacement of s tooth is NEVER going to be as good as Tooth that mother nature placed in the mouth. Doctors can do so much. If you do have discomfort or other issues, then seek a prosthodontist ( specialist) for advice.
